Fisher Paykel Tumble Condenser Dryer Wheel Repair

[@ahzyar]

Such an awesome well detailed video which really gave us the confidence to do the job. The zip tie trick was gold. It took us 90 minutes with two people. We just realised you're in Melbourne next time we'll just phone you!

Thanks!

[@askmrwashywashy]

Thanks mate appreciate it

[@scod3908]

Thanks, our wheels were shredded and flopping around! Replacements on their way, hopefully no further damage done :)

[@askmrwashywashy]

Awesome I’m glad you can fix this

[@JoeSaintsWilliams]

Life saver.. thank you mate 👍

Can you please post a video on how to install the front drum bearing glides? I have a fisher and paykel de5060m1 and have pulled it apart, and think I’m missing those parts. But buying them seems risky when I don’t know how to install them. My issue is the drum is sitting not level, causing no gap at the top front and big gap at the bottom front (clothes get caught and cause fire hazard). The dryer does not have rollers, unlike all the other videos I’ve watched- but this great video of yours is the closest match I’ve found to similar internal workings! Great video.

Wish I could get mine sorted! F&P tech been around 4x now, changed motor and something else and it's still making a horrible noise, only problem is, it won't do it when he's here, but I have it on video haha. Have now ordered condenser pump to see if it's that.

hi thanks for the vid, just did the job comlete sucess although i am wondering why th eback panel and heater needed removing. ta

[@askmrwashywashy]

welcome glad it helped. I usually remove them to clean up as well. You will have more access if you take them off

[@Aussiehomestead1965]

Could you/ have you done a video on diagnosing the condenser unit as being faulty and replacing it please?

[@leonardpanapa8253]

Appreciate this video. Thanks mate.

[@askmrwashywashy]

Welcome glad it helped

Hi mate, love your vids! I have one of these dryers and the drum seized it looks like the front drum seal (looks like a foam seal) has gotten pinched between the drum and ripped the seal. Got any vids on this? And maybe a part number if possible :) Cheers

[@zachealey7415]

Hi done everything you’ve done and all the parts are in good condition. Dryer making the turn sound just not spinning do you know what it is

[@nialrule]

Hi there, I've got the same dryer and get a metal grinding noise when the dryer is operating. The noise is not present when the dryer is cold and I can rotate it by hand. After about 5mins of operation the grinding noise starts and remains. I can't find anything jammed inside or outside the drum, any ideas on what it might be?

[@RonBaroni]

Do you have a video on the replacement of the idler pulley on the same model as you show in this video?

[@ryderearlesroblox8620]

Hello mr washy washy my cousins have a fisher and paykel dh8060p1 heat pump dryer and a couple of months ago it started making a tractor noise and we tried a bearing replacement but it was unsuccessful so can you please tell me what could be causing the issue preferably asap

[@roryallen-qu3zw]

Do you know what the problem is when there is a burning smell and its not coming from anywhere obvious? I thoroughly clean he lint filter daily and the large filter/condenser weekly. Thank you

[@sensorymusic4u]

Hi , I have an issue with same machine not heating clothes - no error codes - I have clean as per your instructions however no luck . Please assist - thanks

[@bobbyt0003]

Any tips on replacing belt and idler pulley??

[@Enjoyyourlife88]

Hi Mr Washy, I need your help There is rope stuck inside the dryer. There is small hole around the drum near the door and my draw string(rope) stuck in there. Any arvise or hint on how to take it out the dryer. I have the picture but not sure how to attach with this comment

[@rosssherylkennedy9491]

I just finished replacing both wheels. machine is back together but about 15 seconds after I turn it on, the drum stops and its shows ERR9. I can't find anything online about what that error might be, other than a slight indication its something to do with the heating. But none of the wires are damaged and Ive cleaned the lint filter (and canister). Any ideas? Cheers

[@DetectorMods]

Is there a fast way to replace the tension belt wheel?

[@askmrwashywashy]

Umm not really. You need good access to replace it

[@christosmontes7222]

Brooo... I replaced those wheels without taking the back part off... It seems like you made it harder than it needs to be.

[@jameskelly5809]

Hi hi, the pin at the back. Is there a bearing there too? Mine is squeaking but it sounds like it’s coming from the rear of the machine..?

[@askmrwashywashy]

Hi. Its a bearing but hard to change. its riveted on there. I think the sound mightt be coming from two sources, fluff buildup on the back of the drum. Where the pin sits on the bearing, the lubricant has worn away, try adding some long life grease there.

[@hairystag]

Is it the god awful swaking noise...

[@ms767210]

That looks a horrible machine to service and imagine it's design makes for complicated assembly in the factory as well.

[@jace542]

Thanks!

[@askmrwashywashy]

thank you so much
